EXCERPT FROM STUDY
Criminal investigation is not a voodoo science but is primarily reliant on information supplied to the investigator either as a complaint by a victim of a crime or as a report by a witness to a criminal act. The Nigeria Police has over the years complained of the unforthcoming attitude of the Nigerian populace on the issue of complaint and report of crimes and criminal activities. The lethargy of the Nigerian public to supply information to the Nigeria Police is not without reason and this situation has even received judicial notice on a number of occasions (Okiro, 2007) .
The average Nigerian citizen views the police with awe and this has been the case since the oppressive days of the Hausa Constabulary Guards established in 1861 by the British colonial government. The Hausa Constabulary was the forerunner of the present Nigeria Police and its sole duty was the protection of British colonial interests against the native population using strong-arm tactics. Currently, there is the ever present fear of being accused of perpetrating the offence one reports to the police, reprisal attacks from the person the report is made against, due to the potential leakage of information by the police to the suspects.
